Spiral Bevel

A modelling method for analyzing the three-dimensional thermal behavior of spiral bevel gears has been developed. The model surfaces are generated through application of differential geometry to the manufacturing process for face-milled spiral bevel gears. Contact on the gear surface is found by combining tooth contact analysis with three-dimensional Hertzian theory. The tooth contact analysis provides the principle curvatures and orientations of the two surfaces. This information is then used directly in the Hertzian analysis to find the contact size and maximum pressure. Heat generation during meshing is determined as a function of the applied load, sliding velocity, and coefficient of friction. Each of these factors change as the point of contact changes during meshing. A nonlinear finite element program was used to conduct the heat transfer analysis. This program permitted the time- and position-varying boundary conditions, found in operation, to be applied to a one-tooth model. An example model and analytical results are presented.

Good Agreement

In this article, the assembly interference of spiral bevel gears in a Klingelnberg cyclo-palloid system is analyzed based upon tooth contact analysis and is investigated experimentally. Each backlash in increasing mounting distance of the pinion is calculated step by step, using developed tooth contact analysis. When the backlash increases, the assembly interference does not occur based upon the calculated results. When the backlash decreases and is less than zero, the assembly interference occurs. When the assembly interference occurs, the tooth surfaces should be modified in order to prevent the assembly interference. In this case, a method of the modification is proposed. The experimental results showed a good agreement with the analyzed ones. As a result, the validity of the analysis and avoidance of the assembly interference in this method was confirmed.

Loaded Tooth Contact Analysis

The method for loaded tooth contact analysis is applied for the investigation of the influence of misalignments and tooth errors on load distribution, stresses and transmission errors in mismatched spiral bevel gears. By using the corresponding computer program the influence of pinion’s offset and axial adjustment error, angular position error of the pinion axis and tooth spacing error on tooth contact pressure, tooth root stresses and angular displacement of the driven gear member from the theoretically exact position based on the ratio of the numbers of teeth is investigated. The obtained results have shown that in general, the misalignments in spiral bevel gears worsen the conjugation of contacting tooth surfaces and in extreme cases cause edge contact with high tooth contact pressures. But, some mismatches, as are the axial movement of the pinion apex towards the gear teeth or the tip relief of pinion teeth (in this analysis it is represented by the tooth spacing error) reduce the maximum tooth contact pressure. Also it can be concluded that the misalignments and the tooth spacing errors significantly increase the angular position error of the driven gear from the theoretically exact position based on the numbers of teeth and make the motion graphs unbalanced.
